I have a method running in a seperate thread. The thread is created and started from a form in a windows application. If an exception is thrown from inside the thread, what is the best way to pass it back to the main application. Right now, I'm passing a reference to the main form into the thread, then invoking the method from the thread, and causing the method to be called by the main application thread. Is there a best practice way to do this because I'm not comfortable with how I'm doing it now.
Example of my form:
public class frmMyForm : System.Windows.Forms.Form
{
/// <summary>
/// Create a thread
/// </summary>
/// <param name="sender"></param>
/// <param name="e"></param>
private void btnTest_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
//Create and start the thread
ThreadExample pThreadExample = new ThreadExample(this);
pThreadExample.Start();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, Application.ProductName);
}
}
/// <summary>
/// Called from inside the thread
/// </summary>
/// <param name="ex"></param>
public void HandleError(Exception ex)
{
//Invoke a method in the GUI's main thread
this.Invoke(new ThreadExample.delThreadSafeTriggerScript(HandleError), new Object[] { ex });
}
private void __HandleError(Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
}
Example of my thread class:
public class ThreadExample
{
public delegate void delThreadSafeHandleException(System.Exception ex);
private Thread thExample_m;
frmMyForm pForm_m;
private frmMyForm Form
{
get
{
return pForm_m;
}
}
public ThreadExample(frmMyForm pForm)
{
pForm_m = pForm;
thExample_m = new Thread(new ThreadStart(Main));
thExample_m.Name = "Example Thread";
}
public void Start()
{
thExample_m.Start();
}
private void Main()
{
try
{
throw new Exception("Test");
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Form.HandleException(ex);
}
}
}
